The Philosophy Forums at OnlinePhilosophyClub.com aim to be an oasis of intelligent in-depth civil debate and discussion. Topics discussed extend far beyond philosophy and philosophers. What makes us a philosophy forum is more about our approach to the discussions than what subject is being debated. Common topics include but are absolutely not limited to neuroscience, psychology, sociology, cosmology, religion, political theory, ethics, and so much more.
This is a humans-only philosophy club. We strictly prohibit bots and AIs from joining.
Discuss philosophical questions regarding theism (and atheism), and discuss religion as it relates to philosophy. This includes any philosophical discussions that happen to be about god, gods, or a 'higher power' or the belief of them. This also generally includes philosophical topics about organized or ritualistic mysticism or about organized, common or ritualistic beliefs in the existence of supernatural phenomenon.

You are a realist.
You also seem to know of the limits to our choices and free will.
Kudos.
Do your moral beliefs lead you to engage against theists who oppress with homophobia and misogyny?

I’m not sure what you’re asking. Do my moral beliefs lead me to engage against homophobia and misogyny? Very much so, if you’re asking if I will speak up when I see it. I certainly will.
I was meek once and thought it was better to just roll with the punches. Sometime during my 20’s I found my voice.

Uh oh, should I be worried? ^_^
Yes, definitely. Many philosophers are dangerous nutters; any fule kno that. Perhaps I am one of them? As you get to know us, you will decide for yourself.

A Gnostic Christian one to my ear.
Congratulations.
Nice that you live by, --- for evil to grow, all good people need do is nothing.

Then it seems your doom is upon you! Chosen by your own free will, as we might say. Oh no, that's the other topic.
